Most of us have struggled with this idea of wanting to find our own way in life. We think that we are unique, and that surely out there somewhere our own personally individualised way is only just waiting to be found.

We search, and we then search some more in trying to find our own path, our own self, and our own unique way.

I have done this myself for other thirty years.

I have grown tired of the search. It has made me begin to think to myself if it is really ever possible to find our own way. If all that exists is the oneness of God, maybe, just maybe by trying to find our own way, we are actually separating ourselves further away from our connection to this greater oneness.

If this were true, we could only ever find our way by not wanting to find our own separate way at all anymore. We would stop searching, and we would just rejoin our place in it all, going with what is, and accepting the great flowing of love through God, allowing it now to take us to all the places, that are right for us now to take.

You would do this by simply loving your current position, and through coming to a complete trust of life, and of where it is taking you to. When you trust completely that all life supports you, and that it always opens the perfect way for you at all times, and in the best possible way for you, you then know that you are finding the best way for yourself, through life as well.

And yet all of the great masters have always told us firstly to, ''Know Thyself.''

They tell us to explore who we are, by asking this question to ourselves, ''Who am I?''

There seems to me to be some contradiction here somewhere, and so I go on searching for my own unique way.

How do we ever find our own way through life then?

This article will explain some of the ways that I myself have encountered.

We have been told that trust is needed, and that faith is trust's sister.

The only consciousness that exists is God consciousness, and we just need to trust this, that this is so. Lower forms of consciousness block us from seeing so clearly our way. God consciousness is living from perfect love. All other forms of consciousness must be raised in us only ever to achieve this same aim. All consciousnesses must serve love, and so also God.

But why do we need to trust anything in the first place?

This step of trust has always annoyed me.

If God consciousness is all that there is, trust is never necessary, as it would actually take us away from where we were. We would only move away from God
